Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Stroking the sole of the foot with a sharp object stimulates the Babinski reflex, also known as the plantar reflex. This reflex causes the big toe to extend and the other toes to fan out. It is an abnormal response in adults and can indicate nervous system damage or disease. The other options (patellar, baroreceptor, and gag reflex) are not related to stimulation of the sole of the foot with a sharp object.
